FF Mental Health Alliance Tuesday, 10/28/14 Working Session: Agenda: Yes, let’s use Tuesday’s meeting to identify our specific points of focus: We will be primarily focused on following-up on the great work that Ken did last week on culture and this community. We will be checking in with everyone if there are other announcements or issues that need to be addressed. We will also look at some of the website updates, as well as other projects that need to be addressed. Other past areas that we will also address, as time permits: Updates and recommendations/action steps from the groups? Fairfield Mental Help website — content gathering and assembling? Ideas for follow-up community meetings? Progress from Mental Health First Aid meeting? Any residual dissuasion from last Sundays big meeting on campus that needs to be addressed? What do we create now from this work? Next event on, or off, campus? Check in on how we’re doing on the whole. Are we headed in the right direction? Any course corrections needed? Any further suggestions? Hear from each of the small groups on their progress. See if we have enough people to form the Resources group we planned on, and enough professionals to form the Professionals group. Meet again in small groups — since this is where the action is at this point.
